X-Files 2

I know you all are probably waiting in line or already sitting down watching your favorite movie, X-Files, but I’m going to post some red carpet photos of the gang that I believe you’ll enjoy. As you can tell one is pregnant, but she wasn’t pregnant in the movie. (that I know of) But maybe they’ll make her pregnant in the third if they have one. Can you picture it?

It’s Gillian Anderson, David Duchovny and the rest of the team. Why is it David and Gillian aren’t smiling? Do they see something supernatural?

TV Movies for Friday Night

Friday, July 11th, 2008

200px-Garfield_ver6

The weekend never ends there are always tons of shows to watch on a Friday night, IF you must stay home. But with the weather so beautiful something tells me many will be going outside to play. But either way here is a short list of tv movies for Friday night.

Movies:

Garfield the Movie- This 2004 action packed movie sports a cat, his master and his beloved friend, haha, Odie. Garfield, just like the cartoon, is always trying to find a way to get rid of Odie, that is until he gets into some trouble. There is a sequel of this movie but this is not the one that’ll be on tv tonight.

Dr. Doolittle 2-  Dr. Doolittle’s back and once again talking to animals, however this time his family isn’t as forgiving. Now he must help Archie the bear find a mate and save his own marriage at the same time.

Steel Magnolias- This is one of those movies that no matter how many times I’ve seen it I still have to watch it. Julia Roberts plays a woman getting married that has diabetes and is told she should never have children. Her mother gets upset when she hears she does end up pregnant and the two struggle to find a common ground. But it is a great movie about friendships and how a town draws together.

That’s right 451press is back in action, which means TVbender.com is back. Boy have I missed blogging about all my favorite television shows. Thanks for all you that constantly tried to come by but after too many posts got rejected because the site wasn’t working properly I decided I’d wait until all was fixed. Oh it drove me nuts to see all new shows coming up, getting canceled, the awards and everything else.  We have a LOT of catching up to do, so gear up for some TV News, you’ll be in for a treat. Oh we’ll even catch you up on the Daytime Awards as well.
